Anil Kapoor: The New Evergreen Hero of Bollywood

There is always so much speculation and anticipation whenever a Rani Mukherji or Aishwarya Rai movie is about to be released. Every channel and paper would describe the sucess or faliure of thei movies vis a vis their ranking in the bollywood hierarchy. But there seems to be no such demarcation for our heroes, and they couldn't care less ( after all, even a C grade hero is better paid than an A grade heroin. Cinema IS a reflection of society, isn't it?)

When watching Welcome, I was wondering about the simple perseverance of Anil kapoor. He was at no.1 position in his prime and still command plum roles. His daughter has reportedly said that he will be chasing teenage girls ( in movies) even after she gets old.

It is interesting that most of the popular heroes are in their 40's. Akshay kumar redisovered himself in comedy movies after getting stamped as action hero.It is said that he is again turing to action. Good for him, he was becoming too casual in his approach towards comedy.
Anyways back to the topic at hand. Anil Kapoor plays a suave detective in the movie Race, with dumb secretary in tow. I was reminded of Karamchand, while watching Anil Kapoor uncover the mystery. I hear that he has performed with his usual aplomb in Tashan also.
